G-BBMZ is a beautifully maintained de Havilland DHC-1 Chipmunk, presenting an excellent opportunity to acquire an iconic British military training aircraft with a long history of careful syndicate ownership.

Based at Wycombe Air Park (Booker), this Chipmunk has been owned by the same syndicate since March 1984 and has always been hangared. The aircraft is being offered for sale following the winding down of the group, predominantly due to retiring members, and has been priced competitively to encourage a prompt sale.

G-BBMZ benefits from a low-time Gipsy engine with approximately 292 hours since major overhaul, alongside substantial remaining fatigue life. The aircraft has seen relatively low utilisation over the past decade, with all recent flying conducted at role factor 1. Operating on a Permit to Fly since 2012, it has been maintained to a high standard, with a fresh Permit issued on 6 August 2026.

Significant maintenance investment over the past two years includes replacement engine oil and fuel hoses, new engine mounts, refurbished undercarriage yoke joints, a complete set of 60 main undercarriage rubbers, new tailwheel rubbers, canopy sliding blocks, brake linings and flap cables.

Presented in very good overall condition, this de Havilland Chipmunk for sale in the UK represents an attractive opportunity for vintage aircraft enthusiasts, collectors and pilots seeking a classic tandem-seat tailwheel aircraft with excellent maintenance history and substantial recent investment.

A time-expired Gipsy engine, previously removed from G-BBMZ in 2019, together with an extensive collection of aircraft spares, is also available by separate negotiation.
